Vaduz ( / f ɑː ˈ d uː t s / ; German pronunciation: [faˈdʊt͡s] or [vaˈduːt͡s] ) is the capital of Liechtenstein and also the seat of the national parliament . The town, which is located along the Rhine River, has about 5,100 residents as of 2009 , most of whom belong to the Roman Catholic Church . The Roman Catholic Archbishop of Vaduz is seated in Vaduz Cathedral .
Although Vaduz is the best-known town internationally in the principality, it is not the largest: neighbouring Schaan has a larger population.
Vaduz is said to be mentioned in historic 12th-century manuscripts as Farduzes. It is, however, commonly believed to have been founded circa 1322 by the Counts of Werdenberg . In 1322 a mention of the castle is made, which was sacked by the Swiss in 1499 during the Swabian War . The entire town was also destroyed.
